I-Rise Coaching

I-Rise Coaching Being understood has never felt this good before. It impacted his personal relationships, his career and his happiness.

How I got started on this path

Early childhood trauma left Eric with complex PTSD and unable to function in many aspects of daily human life. During what originally started off as family counselling, Eric discovered the deeper issues at the root of these symptoms and starts an 8 year therapy journey of healing. During this journey he discovered the benefits of giving back through mindfulness work

with inmates in prison as well as coaching for underprivileged women. It changed his perspective on many aspects of life, and having experienced first hand the profound benefits people had from the counselling and coaching work he was doing, he now wants to share his thoughts with a wider audience via his website www.trijbels.com. Eric offers a range of services including coaching, mindfulness training, counselling and public speaking. Eric holds no claim to being a leading expert in this field and is always keen to constructive criticism and alternative views.

Your teenagers performance problem isn’t necessarily a skills or discipline problem. It’s an adaptive pattern that is still running their behaviour or perspective. They dont need a bigger engine; they need to release their anchors.

Lets discuss the framework for doing so and share experiences with other parents.

We are meeting on 3rd Floor on Orchard Rd (above Design SG) on 19 Sept.

The meeting isn’t about the meeting.

Someone challenges your proposal and your chest tightens before you’ve formed a single thought. Your teenager gets a B and reacts like it’s a verdict on who they are.

Neither reaction belongs to the present moment.

The nervous system is a pattern-matching machine. It scans the room, finds something that rhymes with an old experience — a raised voice, a withdrawn parent, a moment of not being enough — and pulls the old file. Within milliseconds you’re responding to something that happened decades ago, with the vocabulary of an adult and the physiology of a child.

This is where performance quietly leaks. Over-preparing for meetings that don’t need it. Avoiding the difficult conversation. Responding irritated to constructive feedback. Perfectionism that looks like high standards and costs you sleep.

Our children run the same software, just earlier in the version history.

The intervention is small and unglamorous: pause, notice the intensity, and ask how old is this feeling? If the answer isn’t “pretty old and pretty familiar” you’ve found the anchor. Then respond to the room actually in front of you.

It starts with us as working adults catching those anchors; unhooking them, then showing the next generation what we did.
Teenagers don’t learn regulation from being told about it. They learn it watching an adult come back to baseline without making it their fault.

Present, not past. That’s the whole practice.

Freedom. It’s what we all want.

It’s what I have found here in Singapore. Freedom to go over the street at night without worry of crime and pollution, freedom to be pursue my dreams, without being obstructed by corruption.

At Singapore’s 61st birthday it is important to me to pause and reflect, appreciate in gratitude that this country has embraced me so kindly.

But while the state offers a free society, no one can free you from your past. No one but yourself.

Your past drags behind you like anchors, in the form of adverse childhood experiences. Studies show that they materially impact your actions. Hold you back, to the point of feeling stuck.

It doesn’t have to be like that; there are ways to unhook your anchors, for better performance, helping you respond too what right in front of you, instead of to your past.

This will not just help you, but your staff, your children.

What’s your journey today?

“What do mean, today?”, you may ask? Life can go through all seasons in one day. We tend to forget that easily.

I woke up torn apart. I got out my shell( went sparring). Came home refreshed to give my darling Aeon a hug (my beautiful German Shepherd). Life becomes manageable.

How did I pivot? By unhooking the anchors of my past; that way I can clearly see the reality of what’s right in front of us. And that is not always as bad as it seems.
